In 2024 the Grand Trail des Lacs et Ch\u00e2teaux had been selected to host the 2024 Belgian Long Trail Championships, but it will also be a qualifier for the World Trail Championships to be held in September 2025 in the Spanish Pyrenees.
\nThe GT65, with a UTMB Index of 50K, is sure to please even the most adventurous runners!<\/p>\n
The 65 km is a magnificent gateway to ultra racing. It sets off in the early hours of the morning in the heart of the valleys, criss-crossing the hyper-technical, natural route.<\/p>\n
A new ride longer than the marathon.
\nThe Bayon and Warche valleys will amaze you with their unique landscapes: Bayon waterfall, quarry, Tros Marets valley, fens, fir trees, water towers, crest road, Nez de Napol\u00e9on, Robertville lake, stony ascent.<\/p>\n
The GT65 route takes you into the heart of this special and typical natural environment, where you\u2019ll pass through sublime panoramas before reaching the famous Ovifat ski climb.
\nAll you have to do is enjoy your performance as you cross the finish arch to the cheers of families and spectators.<\/p>\n
A special atmosphere awaits you at GT65, where you can let your inner wolf run wild and unleash your wild side!<\/p>\n
